The grub-pv stubdoms (32- and 64-bit) are disabled by default since several years now. Remove them in order to enable removing quite some more code from Xen. In case someone is really depending on grub-pv, they can easily take it from an older Xen build, as there is no Xen version dependency in grub-pv (a version built 3 years ago has been tested to still work with current 4.23 staging Xen). Note that after this series has been committed, some additional cleanup is possible by removing stubdom libpci and zlib support, but this will require a modification of Mini-OS depending on these patches. Changes in V2: - moved one hunk from patch 2 to patch 1 Juergen Gross (5): stubdom: remove support for grub-pv stubdom: remove support for building in 32-bit mode stubdom: remove building of libxenguest and libxenctrl docs: remove stale stubdom entries from stubdom.txt tools/libxenguest: remove Mini-OS specific parts Makefile | 6 - config/Stubdom.mk.in | 3 - docs/misc/stubdom.txt | 69 - stubdom/.gitignore | 1 - stubdom/Makefile | 69 +- stubdom/configure | 65 - stubdom/configure.ac | 2 - stubdom/grub.patches/00cvs | 1022 ----- stubdom/grub.patches/10graphics.diff | 2297 ----------- stubdom/grub.patches/11graphics-keyboard.diff | 13 - stubdom/grub.patches/20print_func.diff | 52 - stubdom/grub.patches/30savedefault.diff | 186 - .../grub.patches/40ext3_256byte_inode.diff | 114 - stubdom/grub.patches/50fs_fulldisk.diff | 72 - stubdom/grub.patches/60ext4.diff | 474 --- stubdom/grub.patches/61btrfs.diff | 3499 ----------------- stubdom/grub.patches/70compiler_warnings.diff | 45 - stubdom/grub.patches/99minios | 1570 -------- stubdom/grub/Makefile | 88 - stubdom/grub/boot-x86_32.S | 112 - stubdom/grub/boot-x86_64.S | 108 - stubdom/grub/config.h | 12 - stubdom/grub/kexec.c | 434 -- stubdom/grub/mini-os.c | 771 ---- stubdom/grub/mini-os.h | 7 - stubdom/grub/minios.cfg | 4 - stubdom/grub/osdep.h | 30 - tools/libs/guest/Makefile.common | 15 - tools/libs/guest/xg_dom_decompress_unsafe.c | 48 - tools/libs/guest/xg_dom_decompress_unsafe.h | 28 - .../guest/xg_dom_decompress_unsafe_bzip2.c | 14 - .../libs/guest/xg_dom_decompress_unsafe_lz4.c | 39 - .../guest/xg_dom_decompress_unsafe_lzma.c | 14 - .../guest/xg_dom_decompress_unsafe_lzo1x.c | 44 - .../libs/guest/xg_dom_decompress_unsafe_xz.c | 46 - .../guest/xg_dom_decompress_unsafe_zstd.c | 44 - 36 files changed, 1 insertion(+), 11416 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub.patches/00cvs delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub.patches/10graphics.diff delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub.patches/11graphics-keyboard.diff delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub.patches/20print_func.diff delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub.patches/30savedefault.diff delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub.patches/40ext3_256byte_inode.diff delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub.patches/50fs_fulldisk.diff delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub.patches/60ext4.diff delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub.patches/61btrfs.diff delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub.patches/70compiler_warnings.diff delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub.patches/99minios delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub/Makefile delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub/boot-x86_32.S delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub/boot-x86_64.S delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub/config.h delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub/kexec.c delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub/mini-os.c delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub/mini-os.h delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub/minios.cfg delete mode 100644 stubdom/grub/osdep.h delete mode 100644 tools/libs/guest/xg_dom_decompress_unsafe.c delete mode 100644 tools/libs/guest/xg_dom_decompress_unsafe.h delete mode 100644 tools/libs/guest/xg_dom_decompress_unsafe_bzip2.c delete mode 100644 tools/libs/guest/xg_dom_decompress_unsafe_lz4.c delete mode 100644 tools/libs/guest/xg_dom_decompress_unsafe_lzma.c delete mode 100644 tools/libs/guest/xg_dom_decompress_unsafe_lzo1x.c delete mode 100644 tools/libs/guest/xg_dom_decompress_unsafe_xz.c delete mode 100644 tools/libs/guest/xg_dom_decompress_unsafe_zstd.c -- 2.54.0
